Peekaboo: Eiffel Tower

Let's play a game.
Are you up for it?

It's called: "Can You Spot The Eiffel Tower?"


I often take photograhps of Parisian sights,
and afterwards I spot the Eiffel Tower hidden
away in the background.



Sometimes the streets of Paris are so busy,
you hardly notice her ...


But she's always there ...


Even if she's barely visible to your naked eye.


I'm counting on seeing her again this weekend!

Yours Truly,

Oh lucky you, please tell Monseur Eiffel Tower I said hello and it's a matter of time and scheduling before we meet again... :)

I took those exact same photos on Pont Alexandre. And I love them a lot.

Funny story....during one of our trips to Paris, I happened to take a photo of my husband on one of the many gorgeous bridges spanning the Siene. After we looked at it later that evening, we noticed he had a big cone-shaped hat above his head....the Eiffel Tower! Still makes me laugh every time I see it! J'adore Paris!

Hello I found you on Bonjour Romance's blog. I love Paris and I love the Eiffel Tower. Last year I went to Paris twice. The first time was in April and that was the first time ever. My friend and I were so in Awe of the tower. And what was better was we had chosen an apartment near Trocodero.. and just walked over there. Amazing.

The second time I was there, I had the greatest trip ever, staying in a friends apartment near Rue Cler.. I was looking after her cats whilst they went on holiday. It was so great when you just turned a corner and the Eiffel tower appeared ..!! (Unfortunately my friend has now returned to the USA).. but I still have lots of friends over there (all bloggers, who I have met) :-)
